EVESHAM United will hope to see off Newcastle Town in a home replay after drawing 1-1 in the preliminary round of the FA Cup.

The hosts took the lead on nine minutes through Jordan Cole after he pounced on a ball over the top of Evesham’s defence.

Midfielder Matt Liddiard scored his third in three games to equalise in the 22nd minute with a shot from the edge of the box after a lay-off from Bradley Gray.

Evesham had a chance to take the lead when Carl Brown was brought down by the keeper, but Matt Williams’ penalty was saved.

In the second half, Lorcan Sheehan hit the bar with a 20-yard strike and Kevin Sawyer made a superb save to deny Newcastle.

Evesham controlled the game for large portions but a lack of cutting edge means the tie will be replayed at the Jubilee Stadium on Wednesday (7.45pm).

Westfields also earned a home replay on Wednesday (7.45pm) after Ben Hayes’ effort was cancelled out by Kyle Brady in a 1-1 draw at AFC Wulfrunians.
